[Bug 741014] Re: Lenses: icon view can make some lenses hard to use or browse large amount of items, need alternative views like a List or custom view to better display results

2012-02-22 Thread manny
** Description changed:

  Lenses: different type of views can help with browsing large number of
  items.
  
  -List view in particular is very effective and used in a number of
  applications including nautilus, music apps and traditional menus
  (gnome, kde, windows, mint, etc.). Useful for a number of different
  lenses.
  
+ -Zoom in and out (show more / less). Zooming out would allow to make the
+ icons smaller and show a bigger number of results. Default would be 48px
+ icons like on the launcher. Could be part of the filters or an
+ alternative view.
+ 
  -Askubuntu lens: a better view for these type of search results because
  of text strings being limited to the size of the icon in icon view.
